The critical period for weed control (CPWC) is the period in the crop growth cycle during which weeds must be controlled to prevent unacceptable yield losses. Field studies were conducted in 2005 and 2006 in the University of Birjand at the south east of Iran to determine CPWC of corn using a randomized complete block design with 14 treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of...

MT+ and V6 are key motion areas of the dorsal visual stream in both macaque and human brains. In the present study, we combined electrophysiological and neuroimaging methods (including retinotopic brain mapping) to find the electrophysiological correlates of V6 and to define its temporal relationship with the activity observed in MT+. We also determined the spatio-temporal profile of the motion...

We have compared physiological data recorded from three alert macaque monkeys with separate observations of local connectivity, to locate and characterize the functional border between two related but distinct visual areas on the caudal face of the superior parietal gyrus. We refer to these areas as V6 and V6A. The occupy almost the entire extent of the anterior bank of the parieto-occipital su...

Characterizing nutrient variability has been the focus of precision agriculture research for decades. Previous indicated that in situ fluorescence sensor measurements can be used as a proxy nitrogen (N) status plants greenhouse conditions employing static measurements. Practitioners N management require determination in-season plant real-time field to enable most efficient fertilizer system. Th...
